"Taking Musk’s idea he voiced in 2013, Hyperloop One plans on transporting people and goods in capsules through a global network of tubes at speeds up to 800mph (1280kph)."

A Dubai backer hires ex-Google treasurer & new investors for the Hyperloop transportation for passengers & products. Already passing tests in Las Vegas.

"Hyperloop One CEO Rob Lloyd said, according to Forbes. “I’ve only been here a year but the things we’ve accomplished in that year, the talent of the team, it’s exciting to be on track to show the world a prototype in the first quarter of 2017.”"

Old news, was done 75 years ago :1orglaugh

not on a global scale & with the technology these days :2 cents:

We can build shit like this but we fight holy wars and argue about deleted emails and who grabbed some pussy 11 years ago.

They should make one to launch people into space..get it going super fast then shoot the fucker upwards..

I nominate Herr Trump to be the first passenger.

I'm too claustrophobic for that myself

cheap funerals when an accident happens. a pile of teeth on a paper towel :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

It will cost too much to make it viable. Concorde failed because not enough people were willing to spend the extra $1,000 to get to their destination faster. Slower 747s made a fortune.

Concorde flights were jam-packed.

It got pulled because of the crashes.

actually, both you and Paul are correct. They lowered the amount of passengers because they were packed and the crashes. However, Paul's correct, the actual airline was not making enough money with rising maintenance costs & the slump of flights due to September 11th.

it does look pretty claustrophobic but then so's the eurostar, I found that alright after we began moving :2 cents:

been a ruff day. thanks for the LOLs.

The university where where I studied has developed a similar project in the late 70's of the past century. Perhaps Mask has been a student of that university too :winkwink:

I've got the same question, looking at that picture.

Concord failed, because a tire exploded caught a plane on fire and everyone died. It was a failure in the design and couldn't be fixed to stop it from happening again so they had to cease operating those aircraft.

after this happened, they continued the flights, it was the finance that actually put a stop to the flights. The crash happened in 2000, they closed in 2003 :2 cents:

Just needs about 8,019 more of those and you're going to Vegas, baby!

Then 8,020 more to get back.

(pic of nats dildo) :2 cents::2 cents:

i myself wouldnt want to be in one of those tubes, doing 700 mph, when an earthquake hits.

splat...

hyperloop is the only musk invention that will ever make money. dumbass gave it away.

:1orglaugh

They are building another test loop half mile long on the outside SpaceX facility in Hawthorne, CA.
